Go-Go Gadget: Egg Slicer

By Libby Birk - April 21, 2015

Be honest: When is the last time you used your egg slicer? It's true that this is one of the more superfluous kitchen gadgets — unless you change your way of thinking! Sure, you can slice hard-boiled eggs into perfectly even slices, but that only comes in handy at best every once in a while. What if you also used it to save time slicing and dicing other foods? Check out how to fully utilize your egg slicer below.

Mushrooms: Use your egg slicer to easily slice some mushrooms, saving you tons of time. Mushrooms go well with practically any savory dish, but we especially like them in this lasagna rolls recipe.

Olives: This one is pretty straightforward. Slice and dice both green and black olives for your salads, pasta, taco, pasta, etc. recipes.

Fresh mozzarella: If your cheese is fresh, even a really sharp knife would crush it, and that's where the egg slicer comes into play! Top your salads with sliced mozzarella or use it for a healthy, homemade pizza for family dinner.
